Take a stroll back in time on this unique 90 minute walking tour of the French Quarter. The teacher-led Creole Kids Tour leads elementary aged kids (and their adults) through 6 blocks of the French Quarter explaining who lived here, why they lived here, and what life was like for kids living here in the 19th century. Kids will see pictures of the past, hold artifacts from the past, and reenact a moment in time. Attending adults will walk away with a better understanding of the city- and some very happy kids! Adults are encouraged to participate or to kick back and let their kids lead the show.

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on the Creole Kids Tour? My niece is 10 and I’m not sure if she’d be too old for it.

A: Nope, there’s no strict age limit! The tour is designed for elementary-aged kids, but older kids can still have fun and learn a lot. They’ll get to hold artifacts and see pictures that are super interesting, even if they’re a bit older. I took my 11-year-old, and she loved it, especially the reenactments!

Q: What should we wear for the Creole Kids Tour? Is it outdoors or are there places to sit?

A: Definitely wear comfortable shoes since it’s a walking tour of about 6 blocks. The tour is mostly outdoors, so dress for the weather—light clothes for summer and maybe a light jacket for cooler days. There aren’t many places to sit, but there's a lot to see and do, so you’ll keep moving!

Q: Can this tour be rescheduled if we have to change our plans? I’m worried about booking it for my kid’s birthday.

A: Yes, you can reschedule if needed. Just contact the provider ahead of time, and they’re usually pretty accommodating with changes. It’s best to give them a heads up as soon as you know so you can secure another spot on the tour. I did this for my daughter’s birthday, and it worked out great!

Just did the Creole Kids Tour with my kids—what a blast!

We went on the Creole Kids Tour last weekend and it was an amazing experience! My kids, ages 7 and 9, were totally engaged. They got to see old photos and even handle some cool artifacts. The guide was super knowledgeable and made the history fun. The kids loved reenacting a moment from the past. Highly recommend it if you're looking for something unique in New Orleans!

Considering the Creole Kids Tour for my niece’s birthday!

I’m thinking of booking the Creole Kids Tour for my niece’s 10th birthday. She loves history and I think she’d enjoy it. Has anyone done this tour? Would it be a good fit for her age? Also, how’s the weather usually in October? Just want to make sure we’re prepared!
